Funny Fridays: The Dark Side To Book Blogging

I'm going to tell you the story of a girl. Her name was Megan and she loved books more than anything. She never went anywhere without one and loved escaping into her own worlds and those created by supernatural and mystical beings called 'Authors'. One day, she decided to set up a book blog, so she could share her love with other book lovers. She called her blog The Book Addicted Girl and soon found many bookish friends who she could be obsessed with. She met authors and publishers and was sent books to read.

Then she got over it - being normal, I mean. She embraced it, looked at people and said:

The dark side of blogging that involves fangirling, screaming, stalking, crying, laughing, going crazy and making fanart? Yeah, she still hasn't shaken that...

Now this girl is, obviously, me. And every single word of this is:

So fellow book bloggers...

I hope you love it as much as I do, even if it drives you

I'm stopping now... I'm sorry for all these random posts. The thing is,

and I know that this whole post is just screaming

But...

It's fun and it's true. And besides. If you think I'm crazy and are denying all of this, well:
